WCP198 Listener Q&A, Vol. IX

Listener Q&A returns! Here are the questions I’ll be answering today: +Do I need to let key sources know when a story runs? +I’m comparing myself to hard-hitting journalists I know, and it makes me think my story isn’t that important. +The pub I want to write for has already done all the story ideas I want to pitch. How do I avoid overreporting my pitches? Want me to answer your question on the next edition of Listener Q&A?
